The Paper Carnival at the
Pavilion.
TISSUE KINGS AND QUEENS,
Closing Scenes Of a Popular En-
tertainment-Music and
Mirth.


climax Of series OF one Of the most
brilliant and praisea orthy entertain
ments ever given in Southern Caliior-
mia. The audience was much larger
than at any previous evening, eligi-
BILE standing room being above par
but Notwithstanding the over-crowded
condition oi the pavilion, the many
who were compelled to stand, though
their view Of the stage was cut oil by
some bonnet or wide-brimmed hat,
performed the little bit OF sacrifice
With a cheerful fortitude NO thy ol
eommendation.
As per the announced programme
the grand march was repeated, and
though it has been often mentioned
during the week, yet will it bear a
last mention, for of truth 700 much
can not he said OF it. 1t is the most
imposing scene Of the Carnival. Two
better characters than those OF the
King and Queen it would be difficult
TO find. and the costumes were be-
fitting in every respect veritabte
royal twain. Of the Queen it may be
said, "what. though her robe were OF
paper and tinsel, never did diamonds
OF the first water sparkle with more
regal splendor than did those
worn bv the Carnival Queen. y
A prettier and more interesting
picture is seldom seen, even
in the grand operas and theaters OF
H. b,
formed and imperson ted 10y allia-
teurs. A stranger could never have
suspected that the typical Spanish
dance "Cachuca," by little Rachel
and Aimee Cohen, was executed by
other than professionals. 1t was su-
perb, and was received by continued
applause. as was also the Italian tam
BOURNE dance by the two ,diminutive
Misses Belle and May Wiliers. This
last was especially artistically rem
dered and deserves mention. The
entire programme was tirst-class and
its rendition hishlyappreciated by all.
The pastor OF the Unity Church,
Rev. Eli Fay, announced that he, III
behalf Of his church, extended to the
rublic who had So literally patronized
the ent! rtainments, and to the press
and tho many friends both in and out
side of other churches who had SO
kindly lent assistance, the following
expression OF thanks:

cess, the church and friends had de-
eided to give another carnival on the
first week OF December, 1888, and that
they would give the public assurance
that it should eclipse anything ever
given on the Pacific slope. The adj
mission would be Soc. and those "a no
